See? they're not liars!

Asked why a nuclear power such as North Korea was being treated differently from Iraq, where hardly any weapons of mass destruction had been found, the deputy defence minister [Wolfowitz] said: "Let's look at it simply. The most important difference between North Korea and Iraq is that economically, we just had no choice in Iraq. The country swims on a sea of oil."

That pisses me off too. Even if you believe that taking over Iraq was a good idea, how can you justify lying about it? The end justifies the means? How can you justify throwing away any future trust we might have had?
